[Health Issues] How to train with GERD and DGR

Person: trained individual (girl, 32 years old) - for instance, she did HIIT 4 bouts of 5 interval cycles of 1 minute work each without rest in-between. Recently diagnosed with GERD and DGR.

With GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) and DGR (Duodenogastric Reflux), all exercises which increase the intra-abdominal pressure are basically banned and forbidden.

She like weight training. Can she do weight lifting exercises like squats, RDL, glute bridge?

Besides that, she still needs a strong core and abs. How to train them with these conditions? I mean, abs exercises and hyperextension?

Maybe, you have some experience in coaching people with GERD and DGR? What would you suggest?
